    Sounds like you are doing good! I know how irritating the stalls can be, I've been in one for about 2 weeks now. This is the 3rd one since surgery. You are so close to onderland!!! You will get there no doubt! WTG!
  2. I just made a protein shake (I'm experimenting). I has strawberry greek yogurt, a coupe of berries, 1 cup of soy milk and I added a tablespoon of peanut butter. It was awful to me lol! My boyfriend thinks its sooo good- he called it the peanut butter and jelly protein shake lol. yuck!

  3. 12 wks post op this week- I can't believe its only been 12 weeks! It feels like its been 6 months. I will be happy if I can lose 10 more pounds before August 1st!

  5. I tried going back to work after a week and 3 days- sitting at my desk for 30 minutes and starting feeling some of the worse pains, had a wore my abdominal binder it probably wouldn't have been so bad, but I actually had to wait 5 more days before I went back to work. I still had pain on that 5th day but it was minimal.

    How'd You Determine Your Goal Weight?

    I think the BMI scale sucks lol. I went to the weightloss calculator the other day and it said if I was 179lbs that I would be at my bariatric goal, but I wanted to be at 140 initially then I switched it to 150. I think if I loss 50 more pounds I would look weird but I actually need to lose somewhere around 100 to 102 more pounds..... I say just go with what feels and looks right
  12. Good luck with your process :) If you have any questions feel free to ask :)

  13. You look amazing!!! Congrats!
  14. Ok so, I'm finally at 252 again- ugh. My body is crazy. I'm going to the gym shortly.

    SOOOO Moody........

    I'm in the same boat. Everyone thinks I'm a total b**** now.... Me and my mother argue everyday about how bad my attitude has gotten. I'm almost 3 months post op and I don't know when my hormones will return to normal levels..... sigh lol.

    Look at you!!!!!!! You are doing great!!!!!
  19. That is awesome! I know the feeling, I remember looking at myself in the mirror a few days after surgery and being amazed at the instant changes.
  20. I switched my birth control pills: Loestrin24fe to LoLoestrin(lower dosage of estrogen) and my weight loss has stalled and I even gained 5lbs, I've lost 2 of them, but it just occurred to me that the two things happened at the same time. I wonder if they have anything to do with each other????
  21. How much worse can this day get??? My hormones are all over the place.

  22. What a great NSV! Congrats!
